I tried to keep the design very simple by using a minimalistic color sheme. 800x600 is the requested solution which this game and all pixel art is based on. I like to keep the border because it fits the new skin adamaix created.

As you can see the login wallpaper and the login menu fit very good together. Why give up the border if we can have this harmonic composition of two already existing visual elements?

Len once wrote something like "we should start to see maps as compositions" or something like that. That philosophy isn't just important for maps (which still look very patchwork-like). It's also important for the whole visual game design. I think we always should keep that in mind.

Also, that gray border is no more. The image will be rescaled to take up the whole area.

Now that you put it like that it is pretty good. I'd like to see it scaled - is that planned for 0.0.30?

Yes. 0.0.30 can also randomly choose a wallpaper if more than one are available at the correct size.
